Father's Day Weekend

This Father's Day weekend, my parents flew into town so that we could see them.  We ended up having breakfast at the Original Pancake House on Saturday morning with Colin's parents and my parents, as well as our siblings.  It was a nice way for everyone to get to see each other and catch up.  Usually, when my parents come to town, my brother and I keep them busy so they do not have a lot of time to see the Hanks', so this was nice.

Afterwards, we went shopping with my family and to Chick-Fil-A for lunch (a family favorite!).  That evening, we took them to Kelly's at Fairview so that Ryan and Micah could try it.  As always - it was a hit!  (If you have never been, try the brisket tacos.  You can't beat a dish that is served with chips and queso!)

Sunday morning, we went to church with my family, and then to The Cheesecake Factory for brunch/lunch.  (It is one of Dad's favorites, so I knew we would make a stop at some point!)

After we said our goodbyes to my parents, we headed over to Colin's family's celebration.

Glenda grilled some steaks, shrimp and chicken breasts (yum!).  Jill made a fantabulous macaroni and cheese.  We had food galore (as always), but it was delicious.  Gary B. and Darla could not make it, but Nonnie, Darrell, Jennifer, and Valerie did.  Valerie lives in Oklahoma with her Mom, and she was right by the tornadoes that hit just weeks ago.  It was so interesting to hear her stories of what they did until the storm passed, how the town all came together, etc.  Makes you realize just how blessed we are to have the "basics" (electricity, clothes, a HOME!).

It was a great weekend, and we were blessed to see both of our dads.  How did you spend yours?
